Yes. If anyone here isn't subscribed to USGW_ALL@listbot (aka The Daily Board Show), I highly recommend it. The quotations at the end alone are worth it. While I've disagreed with the editor both publicly and privately about her interpretation of the USGenWeb Archives status and other issues, she does a very admirable job of summarizing BOARD-L and STATE-COORD-L traffic for CC's who don't have the time to search the archives of those lists themselves (or who fall asleep reading some of the longer posts, which I'm frequently guilty of generating :-). She also generally takes care to separate the editorializing from the reporting, and I concur with Virginia that USGenWeb project members are intelligent enough to think for themselves and be able to handle reading opinions that may differ from their own, without swallowing them indiscriminately or going ballistic.
